They do not consider !t safe yet however, to begin the ayment of currency whenever it is demanded, but checks r.f the clearing house in snia'l amounts are now in preparation to be used as currency. It is almost certain that these checks will be Issued on Monday. Several million dollars will then be available.

THE BERLIN MYSTERY HAS BEEN CLEARED UP The Murderer of Four Little Girla Last Summer Makes a Confession. . Berlin, Nov. 8. A series of crimes resembling "Jack the Ripper" murders I in London in 18N6, only that here the vieiTms are lime gins instead or women has been cleared up through the confession of a printers' apprentice named Paul Ninow, an epileptic, 22 years "tif age who was recently confined in an asylum for the Insane at Herz-berg. The authorities of the institution were informed that MlnoV had been talking in a rambling manner of murders. They suspected him of having committed crimes and encouraged him to talk with the result that he freely related in a .heartless fashion how he had been taunted by his mother and sister with laziness and gone on the streets in a rage and had vented his feelings by stabbing four little girls one after the other. He then rambled about the city for a while and eventually returned home. It does not appear whether the mother and sister of Minow were aware of what he done hut his mind became so disordered that they sent him to the asylum a week later. The police have confirmed Minow's confession. THE CORN CROP. Washington. Nov. 8.

The death list, as the result of the Nacozarl explosion yesterday Is now placed at 14 or 15, all Mexicans, besides John Chtsholm. aged thirteen, who was riding on the train when the explosion occurred. The train on the Narrow Guage railroad to Pilares mine, in seme way caught (ire. In the train were two open cars heavily loaded with explosives and the fact tlfat the concentrator and a good part of the town of Nacozarl were saved from ruin was due to the bravery of the Mexican engineer of the train, Jesus Garcia. Realizing that to cut out the burning cars and escape on the engine would expose the town to probable destruction, lie called to the rest of the crew to Jump, and started to run the train away from the town. He had, takes, it about helf a mile when the explosion occurred. He was blown to atoms. It Is reported that another member of the crew stayed twith him and was killed. The heavy death list Is due to the fact that the explosion occurred Just as the train was nassing a section house in which there was a number of section men. WASHINGTON ALL AT SEA I Regarding the Plans Secretary Taft of There is Only a Hope That He Will JSt Complicate! European Delations. Washington. Nov come from foreign capitals concerning Secretary Taffs tour, that officials of the state department are be- ( coming confused concerning his sched-j tile, it is not believed that the secretary has sought an interview with any ruler. It has been repeated often j that Mr. Taft Is now on a diplomatic! mission to Europe, but he has no of-1 f iclal busness to transact at any European capital. His itinerary was ar- ! ranged before he left Washington and ! so far as known in either the state or war departments, the only change I has been a delay of one week at Man illa. Before he left Washington the secretary had been Invited to stop at St. Petersburg and meet the Czar and the I Emperor of Germany. His necessarily long delay In Manila and the pressure of business which awaits him In Washington, raises doijbts here whether the secretary will have time In Europe to meet any other sovereign, although there is danger of European sovereigns being slighted, should he discriminate In favor of any Of the capitals. There Is no disguising the fact that the officiate of the state department would prefer that Mr. -;Taft's trip through Europe should be made with- out engaging in any court functions. I There is no disposition on the part of the president or Secretary Root, according to the Information obtained, to interfere with Mr. Taffs wishes, but it Is felt that he cannot visit one court and not others, Without Jeopardizing the friendly relations of the I'nilcd States with those governments and he cannot visit them all. It Is believed here that he will not visit any, unless it ba Russia. WATCH THIS SPACE FOR BARGAINS. IT WILL BE MONEY IN YOUR POCKET. JEALOUSY OF NATIONS. Berlin. Nov, 8. Emperor William will see Secretary Taft at the Osborne house. Isle of Wight, during the former's visit to England. A message conveying this wish was sent' through the German embassy at Washington, It being understood that Mr. Taft has finally decided to come. It Is regarded as likely that Mr. Taft will also seek an audience with King Edward as for an American to visit the German emperor on British soil without paying an equivalent respect to the king, might be regarded as discourteous. So much is said about Mr. Taft seeing the emperor, that some other governments have become curious in regard to whether anything Is Intended by the step to be taken by the American government. Ambassadors Brice and Jusserand have already made Inquiries on the subject at the state department at Washington. END OF OLIVER GRAND JURY. San Francisco, Nov. 8. At the end of the bank holiday, the grand jury, of which Oliver Is foreman and which returned the graft indictments, will be dismissed. A new jury will be in-paneled.

AN APPEAL FOR AID 1.0 FIGHT THE PLAGUE San Franciaco Will Send a Committee to Washington to Secure Financial Assistance. San Francisco, Nov. 8. A committee composed of H. I. Brandenstein. chairman of the finance committee of the supervisors. William Oppuls, president of the board of health of San Francisco, and Dr. Foster, secretary of the state board of health, will leave in a few days for Washington to enlist f'nancial aid from the federal government in stamping out bubonic plague in this city. The decision to send a committee as the most-effective means of laving the matter before the federal authorities, was reached at a conference held today at the mayor's office, at which were present the governor. Mayor Taylor. tb,e supervisors. Dr. Ru- pert Blue of the marine hospital ser- vice and members of the state and city health board. The campaign for eradicating the plague has been costing $40,000 a month. Of which the city paid $30,000. The resolution was adopted as follows: Whereas. We believe the successful prosecution of this work is a .nnAOT .. tti. 1-nltoil Ututoti and for that reason should be control led by federal government and that San Francisco cannot without serious ly cripping herself, continue to defray the expense by reason of the enor- 8. So much hasjmous demand for rehabilitation pur- I Mises, therefore, resolved that it be the sense of this meeting that a committee proceed at once to Washington for Hie purMse of securing from the federal government the necessary means for the prosecution of this " ork to a successful conclusion.

Phillips and wife refused to return to tell what they knew of the wild experiences along Marble Creek in 194. Their testimo ny was read into the record a step probably never before taken by the state, in a criminal action. The tem-tlmony consumed the entire day.

FIGHT FOR A DUKEDOM THE DRUCE MYSTERY Proceedings by Which it is Proposed to Displace the Present Duke of Portland There Are Strange Disclosures Iteffartling an Underground J'assage and the Double Life of the Filth Duke of That Line. London. Nov. 8. Hundreds of people vainly fought for admittance to the Mariebone police court today when the hearing of the famous Druce mystery case was resumed. Herbert Druce, son of the late Thomas ChaHes Druce Is In the present proceedings charged with perjury by his " nephew. George Hollanby Druce. in connection with the claim to the estates of the duke of Portland which claim dates back to 1893. The claim has been vigorously contested by the present duke of Portland. The contest Is about the old question whether Thomas Charles Druce. at one time owner of the famous Baker street bazaar, who is said to have died forty-three years ago was not the aame person as the eccentric fifth duke of Portland who died In 18T9. . Interest today was heightened by the alleged theft since the previous session, of the diary of Miss Robinson daughter of a southern tobacco planter who was employed as .an amanuensis in the Raker Street Bazaar and who says she frequently went to Wellbrook Abbey, the Portland family seat where she saw the late E. T. Druce, father of the late George Druce, who in turn was the father of George Hollanby Druce. claimant to the estates ss the duke of Portland whose identity with T. C. Druce she claimed to be able to establish.Robert Caldwell of New York testified that he knew the late duke both as duke and as T. C. Druce at Well-brook Abbey and at the Bazaar: that he treated the duke at these places for a disease of the nose. One of the strangest features of the case is that about the middle of June, O. P. Workman w ho was tearing down Harcourt house on Cavendish Square. London, previously the residence of the duke of Portland discovered an underground passage. This underground passage leads from the house to the Baker street house in which the famous Bazaar was previously conducted by Thomas Charles Druce. The claimant declares that the duke wnile living a double lite used th! passage for the purpse of getting from the house to the place of business of "Druce." v'liiiiiiiimmiiiiiiiiiiitmiiimiinimiiir Salome.

Indian Trader Propri tor th Bis Curio Stor on VVt Adams tr t The suit of the claimant being pressed by a limited liability company the directors of which are the claimant himself and George Crickmore. Mrs. Margaret Hamilton has testified that she knew the fifth duke both as Drue and as the duke and that she is aware of the fact that he married Elizabeth Crickmore. grandmother of the present claimant. George Bruce says he was born in 1841 and went to Australia In 1845 returning to England four years later. About this time he adds, a fact which came into his possession showed that the duke owned the Bazaar and and he decided to claim the estates and fortune and for that purpose formed a limited liability company. The original action wan brought to eject Lord Howard De Walden from the London property which his father inherited from the duke through the supposed failure of the direct line. The contention is that if this suit is successful in establishing the claimants right to h'.s title to other property and title held by the duke would follow as a natur.il consequence within a comparatively short time. Of the limited liability company 410.000 ordinary shares were issued at $5 each and ZO.000 deferred shares at 25 cents each. A FRENCH HURRICANE. Great Devastation Wrought City of Marseilles. in the Marseilles, Nov. 8. A hurricane swept over this city tonight, causing immense damage to the docks and water front property. The gas works were flooded by a terrific downpour that accompanied the storm and the city is plunged into darkness. A number of people were killed by collapsing houses but In the confusion and darkness it is impossible to determine the extent of the casualties tonight. The whole south of France continue to suffer from floods following excessive rains. In many places the inundations are worse than those which followed the September storm. BUFFALO OPERATORS HOLD OUT.

THE BERLIN MYSTERY HAS BEEN CLEARED UP The Murderer of Four Little Girla Last Summer Makes a Confession. . Berlin, Nov. 8. A series of crimes resembling "Jack the Ripper" murders I in London in 18N6, only that here the vieiTms are lime gins instead or women has been cleared up through the confession of a printers' apprentice named Paul Ninow, an epileptic, 22 years "tif age who was recently confined in an asylum for the Insane at Herz-berg. The authorities of the institution were informed that MlnoV had been talking in a rambling manner of murders. They suspected him of having committed crimes and encouraged him to talk with the result that he freely related in a .heartless fashion how he had been taunted by his mother and sister with laziness and gone on the streets in a rage and had vented his feelings by stabbing four little girls one after the other. He then rambled about the city for a while and eventually returned home. It does not appear whether the mother and sister of Minow were aware of what he done hut his mind became so disordered that they sent him to the asylum a week later. The police have confirmed Minow's confession. THE CORN CROP. Washington. Nov. 8.

The death list, as the result of the Nacozarl explosion yesterday Is now placed at 14 or 15, all Mexicans, besides John Chtsholm. aged thirteen, who was riding on the train when the explosion occurred. The train on the Narrow Guage railroad to Pilares mine, in seme way caught (ire. In the train were two open cars heavily loaded with explosives and the fact tlfat the concentrator and a good part of the town of Nacozarl were saved from ruin was due to the bravery of the Mexican engineer of the train, Jesus Garcia. Realizing that to cut out the burning cars and escape on the engine would expose the town to probable destruction, lie called to the rest of the crew to Jump, and started to run the train away from the town. He had, takes, it about helf a mile when the explosion occurred. He was blown to atoms. It Is reported that another member of the crew stayed twith him and was killed. The heavy death list Is due to the fact that the explosion occurred Just as the train was nassing a section house in which there was a number of section men. WASHINGTON ALL AT SEA I Regarding the Plans Secretary Taft of There is Only a Hope That He Will JSt Complicate! European Delations. Washington. Nov come from foreign capitals concerning Secretary Taffs tour, that officials of the state department are be- ( coming confused concerning his sched-j tile, it is not believed that the secretary has sought an interview with any ruler. It has been repeated often j that Mr. Taft Is now on a diplomatic! mission to Europe, but he has no of-1 f iclal busness to transact at any European capital. His itinerary was ar- ! ranged before he left Washington and ! so far as known in either the state or war departments, the only change I has been a delay of one week at Man illa. Before he left Washington the secretary had been Invited to stop at St. Petersburg and meet the Czar and the I Emperor of Germany. His necessarily long delay In Manila and the pressure of business which awaits him In Washington, raises doijbts here whether the secretary will have time In Europe to meet any other sovereign, although there is danger of European sovereigns being slighted, should he discriminate In favor of any Of the capitals. There Is no disguising the fact that the officiate of the state department would prefer that Mr. -;Taft's trip through Europe should be made with- out engaging in any court functions. I There is no disposition on the part of the president or Secretary Root, according to the Information obtained, to interfere with Mr. Taffs wishes, but it Is felt that he cannot visit one court and not others, Without Jeopardizing the friendly relations of the I'nilcd States with those governments and he cannot visit them all. It Is believed here that he will not visit any, unless it ba Russia. WATCH THIS SPACE FOR BARGAINS. IT WILL BE MONEY IN YOUR POCKET. JEALOUSY OF NATIONS. Berlin. Nov, 8. Emperor William will see Secretary Taft at the Osborne house. Isle of Wight, during the former's visit to England. A message conveying this wish was sent' through the German embassy at Washington, It being understood that Mr. Taft has finally decided to come. It Is regarded as likely that Mr. Taft will also seek an audience with King Edward as for an American to visit the German emperor on British soil without paying an equivalent respect to the king, might be regarded as discourteous. So much is said about Mr. Taft seeing the emperor, that some other governments have become curious in regard to whether anything Is Intended by the step to be taken by the American government. Ambassadors Brice and Jusserand have already made Inquiries on the subject at the state department at Washington. END OF OLIVER GRAND JURY. San Francisco, Nov. 8.

Brandenstein. chairman of the finance committee of the supervisors. William Oppuls, president of the board of health of San Francisco, and Dr. Foster, secretary of the state board of health, will leave in a few days for Washington to enlist f'nancial aid from the federal government in stamping out bubonic plague in this city.

Mayor Taylor. tb,e supervisors. Dr. Ru- pert Blue of the marine hospital ser- vice and members of the state and city health board. The campaign for eradicating the plague has been costing $40,000 a month. Of which the city paid $30,000. The resolution was adopted as follows: Whereas. We believe the successful prosecution of this work is a .nnAOT .. tti. 1-nltoil Ututoti and for that reason should be control led by federal government and that San Francisco cannot without serious ly cripping herself, continue to defray the expense by reason of the enor- 8.

FIGHT FOR A DUKEDOM THE DRUCE MYSTERY Proceedings by Which it is Proposed to Displace the Present Duke of Portland There Are Strange Disclosures Iteffartling an Underground J'assage and the Double Life of the Filth Duke of That Line. London. Nov. 8. Hundreds of people vainly fought for admittance to the Mariebone police court today when the hearing of the famous Druce mystery case was resumed. Herbert Druce, son of the late Thomas ChaHes Druce Is In the present proceedings charged with perjury by his " nephew. George Hollanby Druce. in connection with the claim to the estates of the duke of Portland which claim dates back to 1893. The claim has been vigorously contested by the present duke of Portland. The contest Is about the old question whether Thomas Charles Druce. at one time owner of the famous Baker street bazaar, who is said to have died forty-three years ago was not the aame person as the eccentric fifth duke of Portland who died In 18T9. . Interest today was heightened by the alleged theft since the previous session, of the diary of Miss Robinson daughter of a southern tobacco planter who was employed as .an amanuensis in the Raker Street Bazaar and who says she frequently went to Wellbrook Abbey, the Portland family seat where she saw the late E. T. Druce, father of the late George Druce, who in turn was the father of George Hollanby Druce. claimant to the estates ss the duke of Portland whose identity with T. C. Druce she claimed to be able to establish.Robert Caldwell of New York testified that he knew the late duke both as duke and as T. C. Druce at Well-brook Abbey and at the Bazaar: that he treated the duke at these places for a disease of the nose. One of the strangest features of the case is that about the middle of June, O. P. Workman w ho was tearing down Harcourt house on Cavendish Square. London, previously the residence of the duke of Portland discovered an underground passage. This underground passage leads from the house to the Baker street house in which the famous Bazaar was previously conducted by Thomas Charles Druce. The claimant declares that the duke wnile living a double lite used th! passage for the purpse of getting from the house to the place of business of "Druce." v'liiiiiiiimmiiiiiiiiiiitmiiimiinimiiir Salome.

Indian Trader Propri tor th Bis Curio Stor on VVt Adams tr t The suit of the claimant being pressed by a limited liability company the directors of which are the claimant himself and George Crickmore. Mrs. Margaret Hamilton has testified that she knew the fifth duke both as Drue and as the duke and that she is aware of the fact that he married Elizabeth Crickmore. grandmother of the present claimant. George Bruce says he was born in 1841 and went to Australia In 1845 returning to England four years later. About this time he adds, a fact which came into his possession showed that the duke owned the Bazaar and and he decided to claim the estates and fortune and for that purpose formed a limited liability company. The original action wan brought to eject Lord Howard De Walden from the London property which his father inherited from the duke through the supposed failure of the direct line. The contention is that if this suit is successful in establishing the claimants right to h'.s title to other property and title held by the duke would follow as a natur.il consequence within a comparatively short time. Of the limited liability company 410.000 ordinary shares were issued at $5 each and ZO.000 deferred shares at 25 cents each. A FRENCH HURRICANE.

A number of people were killed by collapsing houses but In the confusion and darkness it is impossible to determine the extent of the casualties tonight. The whole south of France continue to suffer from floods following excessive rains. In many places the inundations are worse than those which followed the September storm. BUFFALO OPERATORS HOLD OUT.
